This land of color and relaxed easygoing charm has become firmly established as a favorite travel destination. The local knowledge of Backyard Travel’s team based in Bangkok and Chiang Mai allows us to provide unrivaled, insider access and innovative tour programs to show you the authentic Thailand.

The north of Thailand boasts archeological marvels such as the ancient Royal Capital of Sukhothai, a UNESCO World Heritage site and majestic temples of Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai. Take a family tour in Thailand and soak in the venerable atmosphere by cycling through the ruins of Ayutthaya or Sukhothai, learning about the intriguing history of Siam along the way.

Discover the charm of the Rose of the North with a rich cultural experience and head into the mountains, where the welcoming hill tribe villages of Chiang Mai, surrounded by lush green rice terraces, continue their traditional lifestyle.

Thailand is renowned throughout the world for its cuisine and the abundance of delicious options from street stalls to top-notch restaurants is a reason in itself to visit. Our Thailand tours offer the delightful opportunity to taste your way through regional flavors and maybe even pick up a few cooking tips in the process.
